Horse & Carts

A typical scene outside Cosgrove Mill, c.1880. Thomas Amos, a farmer and maltster from Castlethorpe. He sent corn to be ground at the mill. Mr Brinson was living in the cottage on the left at the time, and may be the gentleman on the right with his son.

This picture is taken in the early 20s or 30s at The Priory. The horse is pulling a water bowser and the maid can be seen holding the end of the water pipe.

The maid is seen here watering the garden from the bowser.
